Maharashtra Deputy Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday said that an investigation will be initiated into why "no action" was taken by the police on the complaint letter of Shhradha Walkar in 2020.
The Maharashtra Police on Wednesday said they had registered the case based on Shraddha Walkar's letter in 2020 and investigated it but the case was closed after the complainant gave a written statement to withdraw the case.
The Maharashtra police have confirmed that the deceased had written a complaint letter on November 23, 2020, which was shared by her neighbour in Vasai with whom Shraddha had gone to file the complaint.
Police had earlier said Aaftab, who confessed to killing his live-in partner and chopping her body into 35 pieces, was giving misleading answers to questions.

The woman got married in February this year. Police said the accused was persuading the woman to break her marriage and when she did not agree, he strangled her to death.
